New Glen Scotia 18 Year Old

[William]

The Glen Scotia distillery in Campbeltown has released a new Glen Scotia 18 year old expression.




It is worth noting that this is a new expression and not a repackaged version of the Glen Scotia 18 year old launched in 2013 which was presented in the garish blue packaging adorned by a Highland cow. From what I can make out the difference between the two is that the new Glen Scotia 18 expression was finished in Oloroso sherry casks for 12 months before bottling which has hopefully added a good sherried dimension.

I remember the Glen Scotia 18 year old in the blue tube, it was cheap looking I thought



I only ever tried it at a tasting event and it wasn't great, quite a fiery whisky as I recall
